Prolongation of liver allograft survival after interleukin-10 gene transduction 24-48 hours before donation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:One method of countering chronic lung donor shortages is the practice of donation after cardiac death (DCD). However, this technique inevitably leads to pulmonary dysfunction related to warm ischemia. One promising method of alleviating this problem is ventilation. However, it can rarely be initiated from th...
